guys, now i got a big problem... my GMA seems like failing.. when i open the lappy this morning, the sound indicates i entered windows already but the monitor is blank...not off, but blank.. i hotkey fn+f10 to switch to nvidia baru can see.. what happened? driver corrupted?
found something very interesting...apparently someone made possible to run crysis very high setting(resolution unknown) on 9600M GT with some overclocking...
here's the youtube video..it is just showing the game that he play,
on the description of the video..says this(link are removed, but i am guessing u all know where to get la..haha)

download the newest nVidia driver BUT ATTENTION IT'S RECOMMEND TO REMOVE THE OLD DRIVER BEFORE INSTALL THE NEW ONE
download the newest Rivatuner version here
then follow this tutorial= (before you can use Rivatuner you have to open it [you will get a warning that this driver is unsupported] go to the power user tap, click ok and go to rivatuner/system, scroll down until you have reached "ForceDriverVersion" and write 18603 beside of it, then your able to use some features again!)
(I recommend to set the MinClockLimit to 25 instead of 100 like the tutorial says, because so you can make oc profiles and make a profile with an ultra low clock when you are on desktop and want low temps and a lower power consumption)
than under RivaTuner\NVIDIA\Overclocking you have to set DisableMemClkResetProtectionWarning to 1 like the others you set to 1 under this section, activate "Force constant performance level" to "performance 3D" and set the= GPU:610 Shaders(unlinekd): 1550 Memory:520 I'm able to clock a bit higher but i think that this are good clocks because NOW every 5mhz can cause problems, glitches, high temperatures and driver crashs! THIS is a good stable and fast clock AND YOU can test higher clocks but at your own risk, each card have a different oc ability so you must take Attention! maybe you have such a bad OC ability that you can't even reach this clocks ! but i don't think so that there is any 9600m GT in this world that don't reach this clocks my clocks are = GPU:625mhz Shader:1500mhz Memory:540mhz
@lee: ya, thermal paste is better then thermal sticker..but i wan for just in case thermal paste doesnt work that great with our heatsink...
Added on March 5, 2010, 2:21 pmexactly what i am afraid...if thermal paste cannot properly contact, then i gg, if i got no back up thermal sticker...
Added on March 5, 2010, 2:33 pm@menmissed: u no need change bah...just wait until the next breakdown and request to change to s41.5
if possible, devolt the lappy, open case, blow in a lot of air, with air-con on 18c? i wonder will these allow oc the gpu with lower temp... it is surely...tempting
is alright~i used to a 15" before~ i dont really need the mobility, but the performance~hehe u would ask y i buy a laptop rite~ cos, my room dont have the space for a desktop, plus i prefer sit on my bed to use it~~so no desktop~
yeap.. i have alreayd installed the driver.. but i have not restarted yet.. but the hybrid doesnt seem to work.. now running on intel only.. cant seem to switch to 9600gt..

i got a new unit.. rm 2050 without HDD and RAM at all.. had to use my own HDD and RAM..
with 2gb ram and 500gb hdd its rm2499.. bought in technosys..
erm.. finding the usb ports quite hard eh.. very tough.. and not well placed.. on the right side.. knot plug mouse.. hahaa..
congratz our newest benq user~~~ usb is hard because it is new... give it sometime~
i`m try install 185.85 again !but failed ..i run setup manually ...black screen appear when installing ... i try run install driver on Device Manager ,but the process encounter an error again !
i had checked the driver of 9600GT ,it change VGA to 96000..but when reboot ,laptop become black screen again. ..
possible the latest Intel Graphic Chipset is crash with Dox`s Mod driver ? because when i uninstall nVidia driver ,the intel driver also crash ,i need re-install intel driver also ...
haiz.. use normal vga ,how i play game~
when u last use 9600m and reboot...temporary black screen is normal de... just wait for a while...
no, most of the time, especially evenings, get 50-70KB/s only...
200KB/s of download is only applicable between 1am and 8am...
Astria, i also live in aussie before... and 30 aus for 15 gb is alright la.. i been paying 78 (or 98?) for 40 gb last time...but good speed tho... do not convert the currency la, people they dont earn 800 aus per month, they also earn 2400 aus per month... see how much different is the quality.... also...too bad you dont have internode coverage over ur place

how i wish i can choose my own ISP also... but alas, that's impossible when living in Uni residence...
so want, $30 for 15GB is really a good deal here???
it is... because the normal rate (of cos with higher quota, range from 20-60 gb) are priced 70 and above... at least tat were back in my time there... 30 aus for 15 gb, and you are living alone i assume, it is a good deal already~
cheap sia...i dont have netbay back when my times there... from the look of it....same like the internode package i used... but cheaper... remember...the nearer u stay close to dslam, the faster the speed in the case for adsl 2+ so check where is the nearer dslam at ur premise..
